[CentOS] yum issue with extras repo?

Hello All,

As you can see below I am having a problem checking for updates. This  
happens repeatedly. I have to kill the process then rerun. I have  
tried "yum clean all" but no joy - the process hangs again on "extras"  
- see second listing below. Suggestions?

When addiction becomes commonplace in a society, people become  
addicted not only to alcohol and drugs, but to a thousand other  
destructive pursuits: money, power, dysfunctional relationships, or  
video games. A social perspective on addiction does not deny  
individual differences in vulnerability to addiction, but it removes  
them from the foreground of attention, because social determinants are  
more powerful.
